12 <br /> <br /> <br />f) Screening. Screening shall be used to provide visual and noise separation of more intensive uses from less <br />intensive uses. Where screening is required in the City Code between uses or districts, it shall consist of <br />either a wall or fence, or berm in combination with landscape material that forms a screen at least six feet in <br />height, and not less than 90 percent opaque on a year-round basis. Top-of-wall or fence shall be a minimum <br />of six feet above the elevation along the property line(s) from which screening of the less intensive use is <br />required. The cCity may require screening at least eight feet in height were the difference in intensity of uses <br />is greater, such as between lots planned for development with single-family attached and detached residential <br />development and certain service uses such as self-service storage and trade shops, automotive/vehicular uses, <br />or industrial and extractive uses. Landscape material shall include trees, planted at a minimum of one <br />deciduous or coniferous tree per 25 linear feet along the property line. Screening trees shall be adequately <br />sized and offset from the property line so as not to overhang adjacent properties upon reaching mature size. <br />Additional landscape material, such as shade trees or trellises, may be required to partially screen views from <br />above. <br />1.
